You will lose all information on that drive tho, as I don't believe FreeBSD will support the EZ BIOS. And you better off without that software installing on the drive anyway. I have a FIC VA503+ board in my machine with a 5.0, 6.4, and 10.2GB drives in it. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of lostsaved Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 1999 3:15 AM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Over 8 Gig on 430VX chipset My chipset didn't support the Seagate 8.4 gig HD so i used the EZ drive Bios to recognize it. If install a FIC503+ motherboard will BSD be able to work with the Seagate 8.4? I did not find this question answered in the Hardware support nor the user groups .
